DDR2 Ram was so expensive in the day, I remember paying like £90 for 2gb 800mhz a long time ago, you can buy 8gb of DDR3 1600mhz for £25 now!

DDR/DDR2 was expensive for sure! I paid $97 for a 1gb stick for my first desktop......the same price I paid for the 16gb of RAM I am currently using.
Yeah, I don't know what to say.
Guess I'll have to get some 2133MHz quad channel RAM, since your dual channel speeds are even beating my 1600MHz quad channel and my CPU "max memory bandwidth" is something like 50GB/s... By the same token, maybe I'll be able to hit 75GB/s (other than from my video card's RAM, which gets that).
Just about anything other than DDR3 is expensive, mainly because not much of it is produced anymore. DDR/DDR2 was pretty much always expensive, even when it was common......compared to DDR3 anyway.
